Jake Mauga

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Singer has released no albums; only claim of notability is a large number of twitter hits, and a claim about some music chart which, as far as I can tell, doesn't exist. Singer may well eventually become notable, but is not notable yet. Qwyrxian (talk) 12:42, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete, A7, obvious sockpupptery in the tag removal. In fact I count two socks in here, plus the main account User:JacobMauga which has the same name as the subject of the entry. Hairhorn (talk) 12:45, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Jake Mauga is an Actual Musician / Singer / and Songwriter I beg to differ that he or his bio is not notable at all, is there any way that I could make this page without having to include an argument I want to thank you for helping me along the way of understanding things around here, it's just I've been a fan of him for quite some time and just want everyone to know his talent and who he is aswell as his long time friend sincerely Bella Jane Sanders (Bella Sanders 12:55, 29 March 2011 (UTC)) -- Bella Sanders mistakenly put this on the wrong page because I gave xem the wrong link; comment cut and pasted here to assist new user.

 * Speedy Delete-A7 Non-notable, no credible claim for notability. Does not conform to criteria listed in WP:MUS or WP:GNG. Catfish Jim   &#38; the soapdish  14:04, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - much of the information is inaccurate, for example Anchorage, Alaska is a large city of hundreds of thousands of people. In any case, I'm not sure that the new editor understands that we have minimum standards for musicians's biographies, because not every professional singer is automatically notable for inclusion in Wikipedia.  In this case, the singer, who may be great, just has not yet hit the big time.  Maybe this can be re-created next year or so. Bearian (talk) 17:29, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete: fails WP:MUSICBIO. Wikipedia self-citation (without article names, no less) + WP:OR at best.  No citations or methodology for statistics that even hint at notability, like "total estimation of over 95,000 digital downloads on www.filestube.com", let alone evidence for actual notability.  Even if the numbers were true, notability is not established simply by people downloading a subject's work; if that were the case, thousands of Wikipedia and Wikipedia Commons uploaders would be notable by now just based on downloads. --Closeapple (talk) 11:11, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
